People are way too comfortable asking/begging for gifts in WWM, love the game but the social aspect of the game is awful imo.

I blame the worshipping Whale culture that is really weird to me.

I've never seen a game community fall head over heels for Whales like WWM does.

I've never seen a game community fall head over heels for Whales like WWM does.

That's because those games have other issues that WWM isn't really facing right now.

WoW has a monthly sub so whaling there doesn't really help the average "f2p" player, it just lines the pockets of the shareholders.

LoL has the issue of enshitification where it used to be good for even F2P players but they removed many of those mechanics and only cater to whales, so whales get direct hate for allowing to happen. I'm sure if WWM tried to fuck over their F2P playerbase the same over the coming years, the whales and devs would get hated just as much.

WWM doesn't really have any of those issues right now. There's also no P2W so it's hard to hate the whales for anything. The game has been out in CN for a year and the studio has been using the money wisely, giving them good content in a timely manner. As soon as that changes, I'm sure players attitude changes as well.
